I like trios because they're basic. Adding in a saxophone or a guitar or a horn just seems superfluous to me. Sometimes it can sound great, as is the case with Dave Brubeck. And a good singer can really add to the mix. But it's easy enough to find jazz with many pieces. It's this particular type of jazz that really pushes my buttons, and that's why I am asking for this specific recommendation.
